Explanation:

Spain has a long and complicated history with colonization. Most, when thinking of Spain’s history of colonization, imagine the years of invasion by Spaniards into foreign lands and the imposition of Spanish language and customs upon the locals in what is now modern day Hispanic America. However, before Spaniards were the colonizers, they were the colonized. The area of the Iberian Peninsula was once invaded by the Moors, a group of Arabic colonizers who were settled in Africa. Once invading, the group settled in what is now modern-day Spain for approximately 900 years. With this invasion, they brought their own culture including their food. This Moorish influence impacted the cuisine of Spain by causing an integration of new foods from Arabic regions, new cooking techniques, and the creation of dishes which combine the traditions of Spain and the Moors.

The beginnings of the cultural intertwinings of the Moors and the Spanish began in 711 as a consquence of war. Moorish rule began after the battle at Rio Barbate. The battle was led by Muslim general, Tariq ibn Ziyad. As he invaded from the Strait of Gibraltar, he overtook the lands which now constitute the region of Andalusia. Thomas J. Abercrombie and Bruno Barbey write of this battle in their article, “When the Moors Ruled Spain;” “Whole battalions deserted, and the Christian army crumbled. The Islamic conquest of Spain was thus set in motion.” The beginning of this Moorish rule would come to define much of Spanish culture and heavily influence the cuisine of the southern regions.
